Examining the idea that the capitalist profit agenda is not benefiting society or democracy, Temperatism investigates whether there is an alternative to the profit agenda currently followed by organizations and society. If growth and profit are an important part of the equation, then the question that arises is "Important for what purpose?" What follows is a proposition of an alternative agenda of doing good and the introduction of a new business framework--temperatism. 410 0$aHuman resource management and organizational behavior collection. 606 $aCommon good 606 $aBusiness and politics 606 $aIndustries$xSocial aspects 606 $aSocial responsibility of business 606 $aLegacy 615 0$aCommon good. 615 0$aBusiness and politics. 615 0$aIndustries$xSocial aspects. 615 0$aSocial responsibility of business. 615 0$aLegacy. 676 $a320.011 700 $aFoster$b Carrie$01527401 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910795485903321 996 $aTemperatism$93770568 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03739nam 2200661 a 450 001 9910967559903321 005 20251117115953.0 010 $a1-317-12825-7 010 $a1-317-12826-5 010 $a1-315-58469-7 010 $a0-566-08958-0 024 7 $a10.4324/9781315584690 035 $a(CKB)1000000000003324 035 $a(EBL)3002207 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000279882 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11204924 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000279882 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10268603 035 $a(PQKB)11377154 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC3002207 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL3002207 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10050744 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL1018342 035 $a(OCoLC)929147108 035 $a(OCoLC)993650081 035 $a(BIP)63348173 035 $a(BIP)6769659 035 $a(EXLCZ)991000000000003324 100 $a20000810d2001 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aGetting out of a contract $ea practical guide for business /$fAdam Rose, David Leibowitz, and Adrian Magnus 205 $a1st ed. 210 $aAldershot, Hampshire, England ;$aBurlington, VT $cGower$dc2001 215 $a1 online resource (155 p.) 300 $aFirst published 2001 by Gower. 311 08$a0-566-08161-X 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references (p.

Their clients often ask them as much for help in getting out of a contract as in getting them into one in the first place. Built around two business case studies, the book highlights the various legal issues that a business must address when faced with a contract it wants to walk away from. In the first instance the business needs to discover whether it is as shackled by a contract as it thinks it is. In many cases a contract is not as binding as it might initially appear - Getting Out of a Contract explains the circumstances in which this applies. It then goes on to explore how to minimize the damage should the agreement be inescapable and helps the reader to understand what the consequences of any actions might be. Written in plain English, the authors manage to demystify complicated aspects of English law for the non-lawyer. This book will help managers to: ¢ address how they make contracts; ¢ avoid making wrong decisions because they fail to appreciate what contracts they actually have or how to get round them; ¢ become more attuned to the legal ins and outs of contracts, enabling them to use lawyers more cost-effectively Company secretaries, finance directors and managers at all levels will find Getting Out of a Contract accessible and an invaluable business planning tool. 606 $aBreach of contract$zGreat Britain$vPopular works 606 $aCommercial law$zGreat Britain 615 0$aBreach of contract 615 0$aCommercial law 676 $a346.4102/2 700 $aRose$b Adam$f1966-$01865904 701 $aLeibowitz$b David$f1960-$01865905 701 $aMagnus$b Adrian$f1963-$01865906 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910967559903321 996 $aGetting out of a contract$94473132 997 $aUNINA
